Candy Crush Soda Blockers

Licorice Cages

Much like they did in Candy Crush Saga, these blockers will lock up one of your candies until you free it. In order to free the candy, you must create a match with whatever candy is trapped inside.

Tip: Aside from matches, you can also unlock the licorice cage by using your special candies. A great one to use here is the wrapped candy due to its explosive potential.

Cupcakes and Layered Cupcakes

The cupcakes act much like the frosting or meringue from the first game in the Candy Crush series. They will act as a blocker until you can clear them out with the proper amount of adjacent moves. However, you’ll need to keep in mind that they come in different layers and will thus take more matches.

Tip: Striped candies care great for damaging the cupcakes. Take advantage of them by taking out entire rows or columns of the cupcakes. Combos like a wrapped + a striped candy will also do wonders against pesky cupcakes.

Chocolate

Chocolate make their dreaded return in Candy Crush Soda Saga. These blockers serve the same purpose as before in that they will make your life miserable by spreading all across the board. To clear them out, you’ll need to create a match alongside one. However, you should note that if you do not clear out at least one piece in a move, another will spawn on the board.

Tip: You can easily dispose of large chunks of chocolate by using special candies such as wrapped and striped candies. But don’t stop there! Combine those suckers together to make it rain chocolate from the skies.

White Chocolate

These jerk blockers are just like regular chocolate blockers except that it will take two adjacent moves to eat them off of the board. Remember, a new piece will spring up if another is not taken out of the game.

Tip: Chocolate is chocolate is chocolate, make quick work of them by peeling a layer off of them with special candies and combos.

Honey

Honey acts much like marmalade did in Candy Crush Saga. Aside from candy, inside of the honey is a bear that needs to be set free. To do so, create a match against the honey. Remember, honey can have up to 5 layers so make sure you bring the heat when it comes to higher matches.

Tip: Striped candies should do the trick in damaging or obliterating rows or columns of the blockers. However, you can also help set your bears free by activating a fish as they will swim across the board to eat the honey.

Licorice Swirl

Licorice swirls are back and more of a pain than ever. Licorice swirls are blockers that can be moved and swapped like any candy. However, they can not be cleared with a match three of licorice. In fact, they can’t even be cleared with most special candies as they will just swallow up the effects. That means it will be even more difficult to utilize specials around them. Heck they can’t even be cleared with an adjacent match.

Tip: Some specials you can use though are combos. Look to unleash a wrapped + wrapped combo or a color bomb + color bomb combo.

Soda Cannon

These bad boys spit out soda bottles for you to use in matches. Most of the time, they will be your only option in finding soda bottles. Therefore, you’ll need to always find a way to open them up. .

Tip: In order to open the soda cannons up, you will need to constantly look for ways to create matches with the candy underneath the cannon. Once the candy in front of the cannon is gone, a soda bottle will pop out.

Bubblegum

Bubblegum spread their sticky goodness all across their level by trapping one of your candies. In order to free that candy you will need to make a match with whatever lies inside. Much like chocolate, they spread whenever you make a move that does not touch them. But to make things worse, they can also develop an extra chewy layer of gum around your candy.

Tip: If bubblegum wants to act like chocolate, treat them like chocolate. Use striped candies or wrapped candies to swiftly chew them from the board. The last thing you want it a wall swarm of these taking over your board.

Licorice Cannon

The licorice cannons are pure evil. The dastardly blockers will spit out licorice swirls at random, making your objective that much harder on you.

Tip: Not much you can really do to stop the cannons, as no special candy can take them out. The best thing to do sometimes is to find a way to swap a licorice swirl in front of it to clog it up.

You can crush chocolate by making a move adjacent to the chocolate–either a normal 3 candy combination or a special candy combinations. One move can clear multiple pieces of chocolate, as long as a candy is next to (or above or below) a piece of chocolate.

You can also crush chocolate by activating a special candy–if you activate a striped candy in the same row as a piece of chocolate, the special candy will crush chocolate, potentially many chocolates. This is true for any special candy and any special candy combinations

Chocolate Fountains (or Chocolate Spawners or Chocolate Fans)

Starting on level 156, Candy Crush introduces the chocolate fountain. These new blockers will regenerate new chocolate–even if you’ve already cleared every piece from the level. For every non-chocolate crushing move you make, a new piece of chocolate will be spawned. The only exception is for your first and second move of a game if the board does not start with any chocolate but only the chocolate fountains.

Only one piece of chocolate will spawn at a time but a level can have an unlimited amount of chocolate fountains and chocolate fountains cannot be destroyed.

In Candy Crush Saga, there are blockers or obstacles that will prevent you from clearing candies and forming combinations. Some blockers can be cleared, others can’t and some can be cleared in multiple moves. In later levels, you’ll even find some blockers can regenerate!

Candy Crush Saga Blockers

ChocolateIn early levels, chocolates are blockers that can multiply. Certain boards will begin with a set number of chocolates but for every move that does not clear a chocolate, a new one will spawn. Until level 156, you can stop chocolates from multiplying by clearing every chocolate off the board.Read more about chocolate blockers here.

Chocolate FountainsChocolate Fountains don’t appear until level 156 but when they do, watch out! These machines will regenerate chocolate, even if you’ve cleared the whole board of chocolate blockers.Read more about chocolate fountain spawners here.BombsBombs are colored just like normal Candy Crush Saga candies and can only be cleared through a 3-candy combo or by a special candy. The number inside the bomb indicates how many moves you are given to clear the bomb. If you don’t clear the bomb in the set number of moves, the game is over and you lose a life.Read more about candy bombs here.

Licorice

Licorice Swirls (or blocks) take up spaces on your board where there could be candies. These can be cleared by making a move adjacent to the licorice swirl.

Also known as Locked Candies, a licorice X will prevent you from moving the candy inside. In order to clear the licorice you need to use a special candy or to make a candy combination with the same colors WITHIN the locked candy.

A meringue is often mistaken for whipped cream or frosting. This white, fluffy blocker is like the licorice in how it can be cleared–just make a move adjacent to it or have a special candy make a combination that will affect the meringue.

The original, fluffy meringue (or whipped cream or frosted candy), only needs one move to be cleared from your board. As the levels increase in Candy Crush, it gets more difficult to clear the meringues because they gain layers.

Like Licorice X’s (or locked candies), candies can be contained within the marmalade. You can free the candy by making a combination with the candy within the marmalade or if you make a combination next to the enclosed candy or if you make a special candy combination.

Toffee Tornados
Toffee Tornados are blockers that will block and then damage(for one turn)one square on a board. After every move they will travel to a new and random square on the board to continue their disruption. They can never be cleared but can be disabled for 5 moves using a special candy.Read more about Toffee Tornados here.

Conveyor Belts
The Conveyor Belt is a type of teleporter that appears in Candy Crush Saga. They will shift in a direction by moving either vertically or horizontally after every move.Read more about Conveyor Belts here.
